News: Why Eric Kendricks changed his mind and picked Dallas

He picked us because he is going to be our new MLB here.

FRISCO, Texas – The Cowboys and 49ers have had plenty of battles on the field. And as of late, San Francisco has won the last few, but the Cowboys got one in a different way earlier this week.
Veteran linebacker Eric Kendricks had agreed to terms on a deal with the 49ers on Monday. But a few days later, he changed his mind, picking the Cowboys with the chance to reunite with his former coach Mike Zimmer.
More than that, Kendricks said he expects to play middle linebacker with the Cowboys. To do that, with Zimmer and the players the Cowboys have on the defense all factored into his decision to flip from the 49ers to Dallas.

I was suprised he switched to dallas but it Makes sense he'll start in dallas.

 

[Risen Star]

I figured it was our amazing depth.

He can actually step in and immediately command a leadership role on defense.

What exactly does that say about who is already here?

And then he is gone after a year or decline is imminent.

There’s no plan, it’s whackamole to fill whatever gaping hole ruined the previous season.

Lol….I think that’s why he did pick us!

Or else, he's aware Jerry & Stephen overpay their starters.

I just made a post on this the other day, there was no way he was going to SF to move Warner to Safety or something

 

[Jimbo123]

He knows he'll start in Dallas.

He knows he'll start in Dallas.

Yea, and there's not really pressure on him to perform

The one time we won the someone over I wish we didn't. Out with the old, in with the new.

At 32, he's still our best LB. I'd rather have Jewel or Queen obviously, but this is still a nice pick up. Unfortunately it's all we've done.

It was the expected future longevity of the coaching staff.
